Giant Turd slips moorings, and floats away!!!
Yes you read the title correctly, apparently at an art exhibition in Switzerland American artist Paul McCarthy's latest "master-piece" an inflatable turd the size of a house got blown over 200feet in high winds. And there's me thinking we in Britain had a monopoly on, shall we say controversial art-work, eg: Tracy Emin's classic "unmade bed" or Damien Hurst's pickled animals, it would seem I was wrong.
Anyway the question I wanted to pose, "is this art"?
